I've installed the kde3.2 packages from the fedora's web site and can not find juk. I believe it is supposed to be in the kdemultimedia package, but an rpm -ql of the package does not show a binary, nor does 'find / -name juk' or 'slocate juk' - after an 'updatedb'. There is juk help files installed.

Thanks ever so much, but that is what I would call a "kneejerk" response containing no useful information, and not answering the question.

To clarify - is there a known risk to a system by running KDE as root, or is it the normal (and generally sensible) standard response, "don't run anything as root, except when you have to, and even then don't do it"?

Yeah even after the massive speed increases in 3.1 the KDE team does it again and now 3.2 is even faster! Plug that feather in your cap team; apart from all the other brilliant improvements and features in 3.2 the fact that it's markedly faster than 3.1 is a great accomplishment. Congratulations!
